Junior workers under the Blantyre District Heath Office (DHO) have  threatened to down tools if the authorities fail to address their grievances.

The junior health workers among other factors are demanding professional protective equipment and consideration on their arrears of various allowances.

According to one of the junior workers, they started reporting for these issues last month but up to now they have not resolved.

They have vowed to stop working if the grievances are not held.
